Palette Analysis

Values in capriccio rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. A distinctly cool atmosphere runs through this palette: sky, water, and mist given colour form. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #8FABC5 delivers the chromatic peak at only 10.2% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 64 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
